Prescott lies in a mountainous section of west central Arizona surrounded by 1.2 million acres of the Prescott National Forest. Prescott’s mile high elevation assures clean clear air and an ideal year round climate. Summers are cool with average temperatures between 65 and 75 degrees, and winters are mild with average temperatures above freezing. Prescott combines the charm of Arizona’s historic past with modern schools, shopping, medical facilities and community programs.

The hub of many cultural activities, Prescott is home to five museums, four art galleries and the dramatic offerings of Yavapai College and Prescott Fine Art Association. In addition, the city offers acres of parks providing such activities as tennis, softball and golf.

The history of Prescott dates back over 135 years...and the city continues to maintain its small town charm. It’s no wonder Prescott has been chosen as one of America’s most pleasant communities in which to live.

See for yourself why Fiorello La Guardia, one-time mayor of New York City, called Prescott “the most comfortable and most wonderful city in the world.”
